Welcome to Pontypool
A bilingual (English and Welsh) sign on Osborne Road (A4043) welcomes you to the NW edge of Pontypool, and states that the town is twinned with three towns, but does not show the relevant countries. The Torfaen County Borough website has this :
"Pontypool is twinned with three towns in Europe: Longjumeau in France since 1994, Bretten in Germany since 1994 and Condeixa in Portugal since 1999. Uniquely each of these towns is twinned with each other and annual conferences are held to discuss issues pertinent to all 4 towns"
